I'm wondering why the body of the email doesn't include instructions on how
to unsubscribe?  Most modern email clients will recognise http and
email addresses
and make them clickable even in plain text messages.  I realise that adds noise
to every message, but people are good at skimming past irrelevant bits.

Just adding "To unsubscribe email:debian-security-request@lists.debian.org
with the subject unsubscribe" at the bottom of every email might halve
the noise.

Not sure if email clients will do the right thing with subject but "To
unsubscribe
email:debian-security-request@lists.debian.org?subject=unsubscribe " but if
they do that might be better.

Also if the web unsubscription form could handle addresses of the form
https://www.debian.org/MailingLists/unsubscribe/debian-security-announce, and
allow people to unsubscribe without needing to pick the right list
from a long list
an https unsubscription link would also be good.
